It was originally aired on Sunday 1st June 1966, 18 months before Kenneth Horne's death.

It's 150KB at: > http://www.meticula.plus.com/Sounds/Horne.mp3 I should add that BBC7 is airing a specially-commissioned 3-hour program this coming Saturday entitled _Horne of Plenty_ which will examine _Beyond Our Ken_ and _Round the Horne_ in some detail with surviving writer Brian Cooke and cast member Ron Moody. Two hours will be taken up with the first and last episodes of each series. The start time is 8am, repeated at 9pm and finally 3am on Sunday. It's streamed from http://www.bbc.co.uk/bbc7 Matti > "Matti Lamprhey" <matti-nospam@totally-official.com> wrote... > > Ian Noble wrote...

Thanks -- I should have mentioned that BBC7 has recently been ListenAgain-enabled. But, unlike BBC Radio 4 for example, the period runs strictly from the following day to the seventh day, inclusive.
